Guests are provided with insulated jackets to stay warm and can unwind on ice couches covered with deer skin.

What to drink: Sip on a wide range of vodka cocktails served in custom-designed glasses made from frozen New Zealand artesian water.

Address:Minus5 Ice Bar is at Mandalay Place in the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, 3930 Las Vegas Blvd. South.

2. Icebar London by Icehotel in England

You might feel like royalty at this chilly bar on Heddon Street in the former wine vaults for the British monarchy.

The carved ice inside is harvested from the Torne River in northern Sweden.

This establishment is touted as the UK's only permanent bar made of ice and is kept at 23 degrees Fahrenheit.

Drink glasses are entirely made of ice, so your order is "in the rocks, not on the rocks."
